1 INSTALLATION
1.1 SOFTWARE
Before you open your computer and install the board, install and run InstaCal™, the
installation, calibration and test utility included with your board. InstaCal™ will guide
you through switch and jumper settings for your board. Detailed information
regarding these settings can be found below. Refer to the Software Installation manual
for InstaCal™ installation instructions.
1.2 HARDWARE
The PC104-DAS16Jr/12 has one bank of switches, two single function switches and
one jumper block which must be set before installation of the board inside your
computer (Figure 1-1). The PC104-DAS16Jr/16 has one additional switch for
selecting unipolar or bipolar ranges (Figure 1-2).

1.4 DMA LEVEL SELECT
If using an XT PC there are only two DMA levels available and level 3 is probably
used by the hard disk controller. Set the DMA level switch to the level 1 position
(Figure 1-4). See Figure 1-1 or 1-2 for switch location.
If you have an AT or 386 type
computer the hard disk controller is
not at level 1 or 3 so either level may
be used.
There are other boards that use DMA
levels. Some network boards do and
so do some IEEE-488 interface
boards. If you have other boards in
your computer with DMA level
switches on them, make sure there are
no conflicts
Figure 1-4. DMA Level Select Switch
1.5 1 OR 10 MHZ CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR JUMPER
The 1/10 (1 or 10) MHz XTAL jumper selects the frequency of the source applied to
the on-board pacer. This pacer (counter 2) is used to pace the A/D start conversion
trigger (Figure 1-5). See Figure 1-1 or 1-2 for jumper location.
This jumper is on the board because the original DAS-16, designed in 1984, had a 1
MHz crystal. When MetraByte redesigned the DAS-16 and added the faster 10 MHz
crystal, a jumper was provided to maintain compatibility with older software.
The PC104-DAS16Jr/xx has the
jumper because the DAS-16 has the
jumper and some software requires
the jumper to be in the 1 MHz
position. However, some software
requires the 10 MHz position.
The PC104-DAS16Jr/xx is shipped
with the jumper in the 1 MHz
position. InstaCal allows you to
specify 1 or 10 MHz position in the
setup. See Figure 1-1 or 1-2 for
jumper location and orientation.
Note the difference in orientation in
Figures 1-1, 1-2, and 1-5.

Older software may require the 1 MHz setting for this jumper. Use the 10MHz setting
for any new software development to get better resolution setting pacer frequencies.
1.6 8/16 CHANNEL SELECT
The PC104-DAS16Jr/xx can be
configured for eight differential
or 16 single-ended inputs. Using
differential inputs allows up to 10
volts of common mode (ground
loop) rejection and can be more
noise immune.
The PC104-DAS16Jr/xx comes
from the factory with the select
switch set for 8 differential inputs
as shown in Figure 1-6. Set it for
the number of inputs you desire.
See Figure 1-1 or 1-2 for switch
location.

1.7 INSTALLING THE BOARD
Having configured the board’s switches and jumpers, it is now time to add the board
to the PC104 bus in the PC.
1.
Turn the power off.
2.
Remove any covers, etc. so you can get access to the PC104 bus. Please be
careful not to dislodge any of the cables installed on the boards in your
computer.
3.
Remove the retaining screws on the topmost PC104 card installed. Replace
these screws with the threaded standoffs provided.
4.
Push the PC104-DAS16Jr/xx board firmly down into the PC104 bus
connector. Secure it in place with the screws removed in the previous step.

If compatibility with the CIO-DAS16 series connector is desired, you can convert to a
compatible 37D connector using the C40-37F-# or C40-37M-# cables. If the BP40-37
Adapter Cable is used, is accessible from the rear of the PC through the expansion
back plate (Figures 2-2 and 2-3). Using these adapters, the signals available are
identical to the DAS-16 (with the exception of the missing D/A signals). An additional
signal, SS&H OUT, can be accessed at pin 26.

2.2 ANALOG INPUTS
Analog inputs may be connected in three different configurations. These are Single
Ended, Floating Differential and Differential.
WARNING - PLEASE READ
Measure the voltage between the ground signal at the signal source
and the PC. If there is more than 10 volts, do not connect the board
because you will not be able to make any reading. If the voltage is
more than 30 volts, DO NOT connect to this signal because it will
damage the board and possibly the computer.
7
2.3 SINGLE-ENDED
A single-ended input is two wires connected to the board, a channel high (CH# HIGH)
and a Low Level Ground (LLGND). The LLGND signal must be the same ground the
PC is on. The CH# HIGH is the voltage signal source (Figure 2-4).
8
16
Figure 2-4. Single-Ended Input
2.4 FLOATING DIFFERENTIAL
A floating differential input is two wires from the signal source and a 10K ground
reference resistor installed at the input. The two signals from the signal source are
Signal High (CH# HIGH) and Signal Low (CH# LOW).
The reference resistor is connected between CH# LOW and LLGND pins.
8
A floating differential hookup is handy when the signal source is floating with respect
to ground, such as a battery, 4-20 mA transmitter or and the lead lengths are long or
subject to EMI interference (Figure 2-5).
Figure 2-5. Floating Source Differential Input
The floating differential input will reject up to 10V of EMI energy on the signal wires.
WARNING
Check it with a ohmmeter to determine that the signal source really
floating before risking the board and the PC!
9
2.5 DIFFERENTIAL INPUT
A differential signal has three wires from the signal source. The signals are Signal
Figure 2-6. Differential Connections
High (CH# HIGH), Signal Low (CH# LOW) and Signal Ground (LLGND). See
Figure 2-6.
A differential connection allows you to connect the board to a signal source with a
ground that is different than the PC ground, but less than 10V difference, and still
make a valid measurement of the signal between CH# HIGH and CH# LOW.
EXAMPLE:
A laboratory instrument with its own wall plug. There are sometimes differences in
wall GND between outlets.
2.6 DIGITAL OUTPUTS & INPUTS
All the digital outputs inputs are TTL level. TTL is an electronics industry term, short
for Transistor Transistor Logic, with describes a standard for digital signals which are
either at 0V or 5V (nominal). The binary logic inside the PC is all TTL or LSTTL
(Low power Schotky TTL). Both specifications are presented here.

3 REGISTER ARCHITECTURE
3.1 CONTROL & DATA REGISTERS
The PC104-DAS16Jr/xx is controlled and monitored by writing to and reading from
16 consecutive 8-bit I/O addresses. The first address, or BASE ADDRESS, is
determined by setting a bank of switches on the board.
Most often, register manipulation is best left to experienced programmers with a
specific need for low level control. If this is the case for you, use the information that
follows to write your own code. Otherwise, we strongly suggest you consider using
the Universal Library™ instead.
The register descriptions all follow the format:

A/D10

A/D11

A/D12

CH1
The numbers along the top row are the bit positions within the 8-bit byte and the
numbers and symbols in the bottom row are the functions associated with that bit.
To write to or read from a register in decimal or HEX, the following weights apply:

To write control or data to a register, the individual bits must be set to 0 or 1 then
combined to form a Byte.
The method of programming required to set/read bits from bytes is beyond the scope
of this manual.
In summary form, the registers and their function are listed on Table 3-2.

These four bits of analog input data must be combined with the eight bits of analog
input data in BASE + 1, forming a complete 12 bit number. The data is in the format
0 = minus full scale. 4095 = +FS.
The channel number is binary. The weights are shown in Table 3-1. If the current
channel were 5 then bits CH4 and CH1 would be high, CH8 and CH2 would be low.

READ
The signals present at the inputs are read as one byte, the most significant 4 bits of
which are always zero. The pins 25 (digital input 0) and 24 (digital input 2) digital
inputs have two functions each.
The TRIG function of digital input 0 may be used to hold of the first sample of an
A/D set by holding it low (0V) until you are ready to take samples, which are then
paced by the 8254. It can also be used as the source of an external start conversion
pulse, synchronizing A/D conversions to some external event.

CH1
A read mostly, one-function-write register.
READ
EOC = 1, the A/D converter is busy. EOC = 0, it is free.
U/B = 1, the amplifier is in Unipolar mode. U/B = 0, is bipolar.
MUX = 1, Channels are configured 16 single ended. MUX = 0, 8 differential.
INT = 1, an external pulse has been received. INT = 0, the flip-flop is ready to
receive a pulse..
There is a flip-flop on the TRIGGER input (pin 25) which will latch a pulse as short
as 200 nanoseconds. Once triggered, this flip-flop must be reset by a write to this
register. Your interrupts service routine must do this before another interrupt trigger
can be received.
CH8, CH4, CH2 & CH1 are a binary number between 0 and 15 indicating the channel
number that the MUX is currently set to and is valid only when EOC = 0. The
channel MUX increments shortly after EOC = 1 so may be in a state of transition
when EOC = 1. The binary weight of each bit is shown in the table above.
WRITE
A write of any data to this register resets the flip-flop on the pin 25 input and sets the
INT bit to 0.

A read and write register.
READ
INTE = 1, Interrupts are enabled. An interrupt generated will be placed on the
PC bus interrupt level selected by IR4, IR2 & IR1. INTE = 0, interrupts are
disabled.
IR4, IR2, IR1 are bits in a binary number between 0 and 7 which map interrupts
onto the PC bus interrupt levels 2 - 7. Interrupts 0 & 1 may not be asserted by the
PC104-DAS16Jr/xx.
DMA = 1, DMA transfers are enabled. DMA = 0, DMA transfers are disabled.
It is worth noting that this bit only allows the PC104-DAS16Jr/xx to assert a
DMA request to the PC on the DMA request level selected by the DMA switch
on the PC104-DAS16Jr/xx. Before this bit is set to 1, the PC's 8237 (or
appropriate) DMA controller chip must be set up.
TS1 & TS0 control the source of the A/D start conversion trigger according to

CTR0 = 1. When CTR0 = 1, an on-board 100 kHz clock signal is ANDed with
the COUNTER 0 CLOCK INPUT (pin 21). A high on pin 21 will allow pulses
from the on-board source into the 8254 Counter 0 input.
CTR0 = 0. When CTR0 = 0, the input to 8254 Counter 0 is entirely dependent on
pulses at pin 21, COUNTER 0 CLOCK INPUT.
TRIG0 = 1. When TRIG0 = 1, the TRIGGER input at pin 25 is ANDed with
TRIG0 which must be high for the pulses from the on-board pacer clock (8254)
to start A/D conversions. The input at pin 25 is pulled up and will always be high
unless pulled low externally.
TRIG0 = 0. When = 0, the GATEs of counter 1 & 2 are held high, preventing the
gating of the pacer externally from pin 25.
Figure 3-1 shows the relationship of this register to the pacer counters and associated
logic..

A write to this register sets the analog input range for all 8/16 analog inputs. For the
PC104-DAS16Jr/12, range is programmable; the lower four bits set the analog input
range. For the PC104-DAS16Jr/16, the lower two bits set the range; the Uni/Bip bit is
set by hardware and the Range bit is not used. The upper four bits are not used for
either board. The current range is determined by reading this register.

Because each counter will count as high as 65,535, loading or reading the counter data
is a multi-step process. Refer to the 82C54 data sheet for details regarding its
programming. The data sheet is available at:

3.10 ANALOG INPUTS
Analog signals connected to the analog inputs are first fed into the two HI-0508
analog multiplexers (MUXs). A MUX's function is to select one of the inputs and
connect that input to the MUX output. One of these MUX chips connects CH0-CH7
high inputs. The other connects CH0-CH7 Low input (differential input mode) or
CH8-CH15 High inputs (single ended mode) depending on the state of the channel
configuration switch marked 8/16.
From the output of the MUX, the analog signal is fed into a programmable differential
amplifier.
The A/D converter chip has an integral sample & hold circuit, greatly simplifying
design and improving signal integrity. The A/D converter is capable of sampling rates
to 330 kHz but the DMA transfer circuitry of the personal computer's 8-bit bus is
limited to a maximum synchronous transfer rate of less than the maximum A/D rate.
19
Therefore the maximum sampling rate of the PC104-DAS16Jr/xx is dependent on the
computer.
3.11 DIGITAL INPUT & OUTPUT
There are four bits of output only and four bits of input only on the analog connector.
From the original DAS-16 design these were the only eight bits of digital I/O.
